HISTORY OF FREIGHT FORWARDING
Freight Forwarding is an important piece in the production chain. Freight forwarders organise the physical movement of goods traded from the point of production to the ultimate final destination of the cargo. Freight forwarding may look as simple as transporting something from production point to end user, but in reality it is much more complex , it involves organising not only the movement of the shipment but the preparation of documentation in such a way so as to meet the destination countries requirements
There is not much difference in the responsibilities of freight forwarders today as compared to freight forwarders 100 years ago.
Freight forwarding dates back to the 1800’s. Inn Keepers were the original freight forwarders, they would look after the baggage of guests and then forward them on when requested. This method developed over many years and was further developed with the introduction of business to business baggage and contracts.
The history of freight forwarding dates centuries back. As of 1800, the earliest freight forwarders were known to be innkeepers who helped hotel guests by hold onto and re-forward their goods. This system progressed and evolved into business to business contracts over the years.
The role of a freight forwarder today is not much different to the past the biggest change has to do with the mode of operation, rather than the process. From the pen and paper era we have moved into the use of pre-printed documentation and digital technology which has revolutionized almost every shipping operation.
Improvement in transportation methods as experienced in the availability of reliable trains and steamships in the 1970s, international trading between countries received a big boost especially between Europe and North America. This trade increase has now transformed into a dominant industry.
The transportation of international cargo is essential for our modern trading . Freight forwarders provide the means to move goods from one place or country to another, without freight forwarding services the international economy would be in ruins. Like other industries the freight forwarding business is constantly changing with the introduction of new and better technologies..
